"She's Nobody's Fool, 2015" by Sal Jones
“'She's Nobody's Fool' is an exploration of the face and expression as cultural iconography. The subjects are derived from existing photographic sources; the resulting painting, although familiar, is not meant to represent one specific person but a particular type of common identity connecting a genre. The title is from a quote by Richard Burton describing his then wife Elizabeth Taylor - a reference to her can be seen in the painting. She was one of the last stars of classic Hollywood and one of the first modern celebrities.”
